Yu-Gi-Oh! in Asia is getting a new kind of iniative/system for their major tournament events, called the "Asia Team Series", where three people can form a team and participate at tournaments and events to earn points. Basically you know how stores would back people and/or people would just form teams? Yu-Gi-Oh!'s overall Asian division is doing that officially.
The basic idea, is as stated, is that three people form a team. However, the rules require at least one member being 20 or younger. And the better a team's standings are, the more they'll accumulate points, and the higher they rank, the more rare and special Duel Fields (i.e. Playmats) they'll get.
Of note, the restrictions for forming a team:
All members must reside in the same region. 3 Members to a Team A person can only be on one team (no being on two or more teams at the same time) One or more team members must be age 20 or younger of the time of registration. You cannot change team members
So be careful when picking your team mates, that you don't pick someone you don't get along with or has a 'problem' personality.
Further information and clarifications about the mats and system will presumably be revealed at a later time.
